 The Kentucky Derby Picks experts do not believe that Summer Bird has a chance in the Derby today. Summer Bird won his maiden in his two-turn debut and then finished third in the Grade 2, $1 million Arkansas Derby at 1 1/4 lengths behind winner Papa Clem. The Derby odds makers at Sportsbook.com have long shot Summer Bird listed at +5000 odds (Bet $100 to win $5000).“I'd say the post really hurt his chances,” stated VegasInsider.com Kentucky Derby Picks Expert Anthony Stabile when asked to comment on Summer Bird. “But did he really have any to begin with?” Anthony Stabile will be reporting LIVE from Churchill Downs this weekend and offering up his expert advice daily exclusively at VegasInsider.com. All bettors looking to make wagers on the 2009 Kentucky Derby should purchase Anthony Stabile’s winning horse picks. The 2009 Kentucky Derby from Churchill Downs will air live on NBC starting at 4:00 PM EST on May 2nd, 2009. Summer Bird is the trained by Tim Ice and will be ridden by jockey Chris Rosier. It will be Rosier’s first Kentucky Derby appearance. "He ran well," stated the 28 year old jockey Chris Rosier. "He put himself where he wanted to and he came closing, and a little bit more ground, I think he was there. He's so mature for a young age. He only has three starts, but the colt runs like he's been doing it forever. He's got a well-settled mind to him, as far as when he runs. He relaxes for you. I'm excited about the race. I think he's handled the track well, really well, and I look for him to improve. He'll show up."
